    The Los Angeles Clippers suffered a brutal loss to the Dallas Mavericks in Game 5 of their first-round series. Los Angeles got pounced at home and now has to face an elimination game in Dallas for Game 6.

    A major star on the Clippers roster is taking most of the heat for the loss. Veteran guard James Harden had yet another disappointing playoff performance. Harden is one of the best scorers to touch the NBA hardwood, but whenever the playoffs come around it's a different story.

    He finished the game with seven points, shooting 2-10 from the field. NBA fans made sure to call out Harden for his performance, detailing other players that outperformed him and giving insight to Harden's ringless future.

    It was Harden's responsibility to take over the team and put them on his back with their leading two-way star, Kawhi Leonard, sidelined due to injury.

    Fans pointed out role players outscoring Harden, as well as sharing some bold takes on his future in the league and bottom-level historic records.
